Well I was speaking generally. When I look at a tapestry crochet pattern I don't know how to follow it. Is it just like filet corchet?? or are the graphic patterns read differently??

[tapestrycrochet]

@philosgal Each square on the TC graph is a different color stitch.

could you also please do a tutorial on how to read tapestry patterns? I am totally new to it and I am having a little trouble understanding it.

@philosgal Which pattern are you having trouble understanding?

You can buy 100% worsted weight wool in most stores that sell yarn.

Is there a link to the pattern? I don't like to stitch my pieces together, either, if I can help it :) Cute purse and I'm really looking forward to learning how to felt :)
